A Breakthrough Blood Test For Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Epigenetics, Biomarkers & Diagnosis


In this episode, we explore a groundbreaking development in the diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS/ME) — a condition that affects millions worldwide, yet remains notoriously difficult to identify…

Joining the podcast to discuss this topic are Alexandre Akoulitchev and Dmitry Pshezhetskiy, who break down a novel blood test designed to detect biological signatures associated with chronic fatigue. Their work centers on cutting-edge epigenetic science and biomarker discovery, offering new possibilities for more objective and earlier diagnosis of complex, hard-to-measure conditions.

Hit play to discover:

  • How a blood-based biomarker test may help identify chronic fatigue syndrome.

  • The role of epigenetics in understanding complex, “invisible” illnesses.

  • The four key symptoms of ME/CFS, and why it's so difficult to diagnose.

  • How inflammation signals can contribute to chronic fatigue.

Alexandre Akoulitchev is a molecular biologist specializing in genome regulation and chromatin architecture. He is a cofounder of Oxford BioDynamics and the creator of its EpiSwitch biomarker platform. He earned his PhD in cell biology from University College London.

Dmitry Pshezhetskiy is a Professorial Research Fellow at Norwich Medical School and an academic clinician focused on cancer biology and therapeutic research. He completed his academic training at Moscow State University, Montréal institutions, and leading research centers in France, building a strong background in molecular medicine and translational research.

Anxiety Based Disorders, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Distinguishing Fear and Anxiety with CBT Techniques with Catherine Pittman

What can we learn about our mental health from rats? Since our brains are similar, the answer may surprise you. Listen up to discover: The difference between fear and anxiety The pathways to anxiety and fear What a panic attack actually signals Catherine Pittman, an author and Professor of Psychology at St. Mary's College, shares her career developing cognitive behavioral therapy techniques dealing with fear and anxiety. By looking at how our brain may be similar to a rat's, we can begin to understand our fear responses and the effects they have. However, since it still triggers the amygdala, it can be challenging to control your body's response to stimuli. Since the cortex and amygdala are two of the important response centers in anxiety disorders, we must attempt to change how they learn. By presenting stimuli in a controlled setting with the help of cognitive behavioral therapies, relief can be brought to those who struggle with anxiety-based disorders. To learn...
